8 Breakthrough Face Masks That Brighten, Hydrate, and Fill

face masks

Whether as a supplement to an unexpected snow-day beauty staycation or a part of your everyday skin-care routine, face masks—in their many forms—are beauty’s proverbial cherry on top. And a new generation of products is designed to offer targeted, seriously unique skin solutions. Dark spots and dullness? Lay Colbert MD’s Illumino Anti-Aging Brightening Mask over your face and watch as the mesh layer delivers regenerative swiftlet nest extract—literally edible bird nests formed from the saliva of a swiftlet, which is similar to a swallow, the essence of which is considered a youth tonic in traditional Chinese medicine—and a cocktail of helpful acids. Tony Moly Age-Defying Snail Hydro-Gel Face Mask Sheet relies on the power of snail mucin (are we sensing a theme?) to soften and moisturize skin, while Korean beauty brand Manefit offers a collagen-infused gel option to boost elasticity. And for those seeking to avoid the serial-killer look, traditionally applied masks are also experiencing a renaissance: Needles No More by Dr. Brandt Skincare is a brush-on, leave-on option that instantly fills lines and levels skin, and Glamglow Gravity Mud morphs from white to a metallic chrome concoction as it firms, making it just as fun to apply as it is to peel off. Above, eight face masks that do more.
